Analysis of Local Moisture Increase of Timber Constructions on Ice Arena Roof

Abstract:

Timber is one of the most used materials for roofing of ice arena because of its very good mechanical properties and low weight. High relative humidity of internal air, low temperature and ice rink presence, which cause fall of surface temperatures of constructions under the dew point due to radiation, are risky factors not only from structural point of view, when load bearing capacity of construction in time is reduced, but also from the view point of bio corrosion. Specific hygrothermal microclimate, different from air parameters in the ice arena, is formatted close to the individual members of roof construction. Newly developed mathematical and physical model using CFD simulation is used for simulation of hygrothermal stress in chosen part of the ice arena roof construction, which substantially affects quality, utility properties and life time of timber roof components. Results are compared with experiments in specific ice rink.
